“"Preventing harmful AI practices will require risk assessments, pathways for public consultation, and Afrofeminist frameworks that center on ethics. Developers need to constantly research impacts, but also create a future with beneficial tech."”

“"This sounds cliche, but I’m just always driven by this need for social justice. I do feel like, on one hand, that digital tech has the ability to transform people’s lives in terms of improving their life experiences and how they interact with governments, how governments provide services, how you receive education, how you receive entertainment, and how you work."”

“"Some of my proudest moments in STEM have been around conducting vital research on our technological and data ecosystems to put our needs, challenges and solutions on the map." Neema speaking on her proudest moment as a scientist”

“There have been many advances in e-government across many of the countries that we work in, but there is still a very, very long way to go, not just in the digitalization of services and service design, but in even making sure that all citizens can then access these digital services.” Neema speaking to dai-global-digital”

““I would love for Global North-based organizations to not view organizations within Africa and the expertise that they hold as ‘local.’ There is a massive imbalance in power whereby Global North-based organizations can set up shop in Africa and run the show with little context or care, and establish themselves as experts. However, within this worldview, Africans can only be experts, if that, within their own community.Neema speaking on the the role of africa in the Global scene”
